[talk-au] Turn restrictions

[Gavin Scott]

At a T intersection only school buses are allowed to turn into the stem of
the T.
Should this restriction be controlled by a relation, an access tag on the
stem, or both.

Thanks
Gavin

Re: [talk-au] Recommended CB radio channel for road

[Bob Cameron]

As I understand it the ACMA license database POI is waiting for a 
waiver. A query of that will yield all repeater licenses, site locations 
(lat/lon/elev etc) . I actually use it to populate my navigation GPS


The general rule for emergency use is to try all the lower half 
repeaters (kerchunking them), rather than trying short range simplex. 
The closest is not necessarily the right one to use.

More legible map of the repeaters (again for illustrative purposes only):

I wonder if this could be expanded to also capture the relevant emergency use channel for the area.

 

The use case in mind, is in relation to the pastoral leases, in outback SA, operate repeaters for their own use, but are also there for emergency use.

See page 9-12 of this PDF (noting that this is just provided for illustrative purposes only, as unsure on the license): 

https://www.oca.sa.gov.au/resources/4WD-Tracks-and-Repeater-Towers.pdf

(page 1 provides the guidance on use/etiquette).

 

The challenge with including this is should it be captured on the relevant road section, or on the repeater tower and the data consumer then needs to work out coverage?

 

These channels are usually advertised on road signs located at the boundaries between pastoral leases on the main through route, so there may be Mapillary or KartaView photos of the signs to use as a source.

 

Stephen.

Absolutely agree with you Bob. I'm just talking about specific "hazardous" roads where the jurisdiction's Roads Authority has put up a permanent sign advising road users to operate on a specific channel for that road. I'm cognizant not to encourage use of 5/35, unless in an emergency.

 

And Graeme thanks for the research! I'll have a think and do a little Any Tags You Like on the first road. Probably a bit too early for any formal tagging guidelines proposal at this stage. I'll tag Great Alpine Road soon, and see if it evolves to other roadways with verifiable CB signage.



 

The other thing with it is that the channel would then need to be shown somehow, so "OSMAND" would have to have the option of showing CB="29", the same as it currently shows the speed limit for that stretch of road, which may be even trickier to do?

 

Thanks
